Explanation:

Theodore Roosevelt pursued an interventionist foreign policy, often summarized by his "Big Stick" ideology. He used military force (like the Great White Fleet's global display) and economic leverage (such as facilitating the Panama Canal and using dollar diplomacy precursors) to expand U.S. global influence. The other options are incorrect: he rejected isolationism, engaged heavily internationally, and did not rely solely on diplomacy while reducing military presence.

He expanded U.S. influence through military and economic intervention.
